  • What is a tung tree?
  • The oils produced from the seeds of the tung tree (also known as the China wood oil tree) [ Vernicia fordii (Hemsl.) and Vernicia montana (Lour.)] (previously Aleurites fordii and Aleurites montana) ( Govaerts, 1966) occupy an important niche in the industrial vegetable oils market.
  • Can Tung seed be used in other commodity oilseed crops?
  • The recalcitrance of this tung seed activity to traditional purification methods quickly led to a revised approach wherein the necessary genes from tung could be identified, studied in model systems in the laboratory, and then introduced into other commodity oilseed crops with amenable agronomic characteristics.
  • Does China still produce tung oil?
  • China still accounts for at least 70% of global tung oil production annually, but over time production has spread to various other countries (see Table 10.1).
  • Where did Tung oil come from?
  • Mississippi replaced Florida as the number one state for tung oil production. In 1935, there were 44,162 acres of tung production, and 21,000 were in Mississippi, slightly more than the 17,000 in Florida, according to a survey in the 1935 Farm Credit Administration Report ( Farm Credit Administration, 1935 ).
